Adding to what @dfaure said, I think the button is useful, and it should be opt-out, not opt-in; the former is simple using systemsettings, the latter is impossible to discover, because how would a new user find out there is actually a question mark button that can be used to show extra info about some GUI element.

It's the sort of thing that is occasionally useful for some people some of the time somewhere somehow, but mostly useless for 99% of people. Perhaps there is a third option: turn it into an advanced page or a dialog accessed from another KCM. Surfacing this stuff in its current location is super overkill, but maybe we can just hide it better.

We live in a world of fast reliable internet. I suspect people in less-well-equipped ("third world") countries might have a use for increasing timeout values so the system tries longer before giving up. But yes this was more useful when it was about your internet browsing, while now if it's just about your DAV connection....

imo Breeze could skip the fully "flat and rounded" phase and go a bit back to oxygen but futuristic with just a bit of skeuomorphism+more blurred parts(kinda glassmorphism)+ at least 6px radius, which would mix nicely with the current (and in future more rounded) icons having nice gradient and shadows, like
